This community response is amazing. Dear, milquetoast Dems, I think it is politically safe to abolish ICE at this point. The people do not want them.

This project should be the standard for utility upgrade projects. When we tear up the street for sub-surface upgrades, we should rebuild the road with surface upgrades (bus and/or bike lanes).

I put my own Alki Wish list together and I’m going to share it Wilson’s transition team. They are reaching out to communities to find out what they need from mayor’s office. Just decided to make my own list to to share. LMK if you have any feedback friends!

Through protests and vigils on Beacon Ave, Rodriguez's friends refuse to let them be forgotten + Police still seeking suspect who fled #SEAbikes #Seattle

You may see this referred to as a "setback" for replacing this aging bridge, but it could be the exact opposite. I bet they can design, fund and open a reasonably-sized bridge more quickly than they could have finished construction on their planned monstrosity of community-destroying interchanges.

You are expendable to them. Your children are expendable. These are people who do not know the value of human life in any arena.

Hi! Did you receive an e-bike rebate last year (provided thru @wsdot.wa.gov) and use it to purchase a bike? I’d love to chat with you about how e-bike access affected your travel habits and options, for the WSDOT Blog! Please DM me here or contact Hannah dot Weinberger at WSDOT dot WA dot gov.

WA Bikes seeks 'presumed liability,' e-moto clarifications and preserved safe streets funding in 2026 state legislative session + One bill gets hearing Jan 14 #SEAbikes #Seattle

Yesterday’s killing of Minneapolis mother Renee Nicole Good proves the dangers of Trump’s campaign of terror via ICE across our country. ICE officers appear to not only be acting with impunity, but the explicit approval and support of the president and his administration.

Abolish ICE

Earlier this week, a pedestrian was killed on 175th Street in Shoreline. Despite what you may have heard on social media, this was not an isolated incident. local.interurbancanopy.news/p/another-fa...

CM Saka will continue to chair Transportation Committee, Rinck joins as Vice-Chair #SEAbikes #Seattle

interesting! here's a video i took yesterday of federal agents ramming community members with their car

people with bikes block off 2nd Ave, putting a barrier between the demonstration and the light police presence @thestranger.com

A severely car-brained man decided to spew some toxic brain exhaust at me and my kid yesterday. Scared my kid a bit, but I just disengaged and ignored him (which made him more mad because I guess he wanted to fight me in front of my kid?). He eventually ran out of mouth froth and drove away.

Saka's hiring of Brendan Kolding is not going over well on the West Seattle Blog. westseattleblog.com/2026/01/city...

We have to talk about Alexis Mercedes Rinck's speech today.

Rode the newly protected Ravenna blvd bike lanes finally. They’re awesome BUT citywide that project would be like #100 on my list lol. They weren’t even that bad before. Also the parts that were really bad (intersections where u r sandwiched btwn left and straight going cars) aren’t better at all 😥

Is there any reasonable way to bike from Auburn or the Interurban to Federal Way Downtown? Something that doesn't involve climbing a hill on a highway with no shoulder. Indirect is fine.

Did you try this cheap transit trick today? Let us know how it went. Taking Lime to transit is cheaper than walking…if you are willing to use a terrible app and park in very specific places.

Sorry, but triumphant claims about autonomous vehicle safety are wildly exaggerated. It's an open question whether today’s self-driving cars are any safer than those driven by humans. And if reducing crashes is the goal, that isn’t even the right question. My deep dive, in Bloomberg 🧵

The Lime + transit hack explained: How to get a Lime ride and 3 transit tickets for $1.66* #SEAbikes #Seattle

Sometimes I am writing a story and think, "Hey, I wonder if anyone has ever written about this before." So I do a web search and find an old story...written by me.

More good news: Sales at Pike Place Market were up 7.2% in October! Or to quote the PDA's own words the market has had "exceptional sales performance of our tenants." (pikeplacemarket.community.highbond.com/document/fd1...) 📈 So far every month of the pedestrianization pilot sales have been up!

It would be horrible for the Seattle Curbed archive to just vanish.

Just confirmed this Lime + transit hack works.

Yes, questions such as, “What are you going to do to stop this illegal war for oil, Senator?”

About 200 people are rallying in downtown Seattle to denounce U.S. military strikes on Venezuela and the kidnapping of its president Nicolás Maduro. The attacks occurred overnight and were authorized by U.S. President Donald Trump. Organizers called for a new anti-war movement to oppose the attacks.

Another war for oil. These monsters only know greed and cruelty.

I will gladly look at your crappy sketch on the back of a napkin or read your poorly-punctuated and half-baked thought. But I will not appreciate or engage with an image you asked a plagiarism bot to generate for you or read the well-formatted bot-generated text you emailed me.
